    Recipe Introduction

    GP's 2003 12-Days-of-Christmas Cookies Day 8

    List of Ingredients

    1 cup butter
    1 1/3 cups sugar
    1 tablespoon light corn syrup
    3 tablespoons water
    1 cup coarsely chopped blanched almonds, toasted
    4 4½-ounce bars milk chocolate, melted
    1 cup finely chopped blanched almonds, toasted

    Recipe

    Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add sugar, corn syrup, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring now and then, to hard-crack stage (300 F on your candy thermometer) - watch carefully after temperature reaches 280 F.

    Quickly stir in coarsely chopped nuts; spread in well-greased 13x9 inch pan. Cool thoroughly. Turn out on waxed paper; spread top with half the melted chocolate; sprinkle with half the finely chopped nuts. Cover with waxed paper; invert; spread again with remaining chocolate. Sprinkle top with remaining nuts. If necessary, chill to firm chocolate.

    Break into pieces.
